To start, my wife and I each ordered a cocktail, both of which were well made and quite tasty. We then ordered a first course, with my wife opting for the Crab Maison and I the Oysters Rockefeller. Both were excellent and the crab portion was huge. As a result and after sharing some of her crab with me in exchange for a single oyster, my wife’s appetite was completely sated. With what i had already eaten, i passed on a main and instead opted for a small spinach salad, which I completely enjoyed. As for the service, our server Bryleigh was attentive, helpful, and excellent at her job.

As always, exceeded expectations. Ordered a bottle of the 23 Aviator , and was not disappointed. Food and service fantastic. We were seated on the deck, and enjoyed a magnificent sunset with the fall foliage putting on a show during the golden hour. No better place for an all round great experience.

    Table was ready when we arrived based on our reservation time. And everything went smoothly after that….service, food, etc. They also had a guitar player that made the ambience perfect.
